there was a girl from my neighborhood years ago went to some country for spring break. she' was out partying and met some guy. they were dancing and what not. and they started making out. her friends grabbed her to go home before she could leave with the guy. so they come back to the U.S. and she has this bad break out all over her face and rash or whatever. she goes to the doctor and finds out she has this super rare infection caused by exchanging saliva with a cannibal. dude was gonna wine and dine her then eat her kidneys with a nice glass of chianti. so those people do exist.

there's no need to have daylight savings time anymore, we just do it out of stupid tradition now. it was o ly implemented for farmers a hundred years ago but they don't need it anymore wit the tech they have

Oh that reminds me, niapolitan ice cream sandwiches were made to imitate a banana split but because of the lack of fruit during ww2 banana ice cream was removed and vanilla took its place.

View media item 1570139Hustler magazine's parody of public figure and minister Jerry Falwell
The satire at issue was a takeoff of an advertising campaign for Campari, an Italian apéritif. The real ads were tongue-in-cheek interviews with celebrities talking about their "first time." The ads, which played off the double entendre in the headline (“X talks about his first time”), initially appeared to discuss the star’s first sexual experience before revealing that the discussion actually concerned the subject's first time drinking Campari.
This went all the way to the Supreme Court.
Hustler Magazine, Inc. v. Falwell, 485 U.S. 46 (198
, was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held, in a unanimous 8–0 decision, that the First Amendment's free-speech guarantee prohibits awarding damages to public figures to compensate for emotional distress intentionally inflicted upon them.
Hustler magazine's parody of Jerry Falwell was deemed to be within the law, because the Court found that reasonable people would not have interpreted the parody to contain factual claims, leading to a reversal of the jury verdict in favor of Falwell, who had previously been awarded $150,000 in damages by a lower court.

some octopuses possess the foresight to actually pack along coconut shells to use as protective shelters when exploring areas without adequate places to hide.

The reason public toilets have the gap in the front of the seat (there are other reasons out there too)

The reason public toilets have the gap in the front of the seat (there are other reasons out there too)
circular-shaped objects have rigidity based on their form. This means they resist deformation when force is applied (your *** sitting on toilet seat). This can be a good thing: Toilet seat feels structurally sound when sitting on it.
The problem is that the rigidity is not infinite. There is a snap point, and since the form is not able to bend, when the snap point is hit, it usually fails VERY BADLY. In our case, this often means replacing the toilet seat ($$$).
By taking a very small wedge out of an otherwise full circle, it changes the whole dynamic of the form. All of a sudden we have a U shape instead of an O. Now, both "legs" of the U are able to (mostly) independently move. This raises the "snap point" as the materials are now able to bend effectively and more thoroughly distribute load.
At the end of the day, the shape choice of a toilet seat is about it's reliability. In normal usage, U shaped seats are MUCH less likely to break over the long term than O shaped seats.
And at the end of the week, reliability is really about money. How long will thing X last given normal use conditions? When will I have to replace it? What are the costs associated with wear and tear? This makes sense in the context of businesses/governments (who usually own the public toilets in question here).
The reason that they are different at home is because at home you also (usually) have aesthetic requirements that automatically trump any cost related requirements. This is due to a combination of (a) people liking to surround themselves with things that are pretty, and (b) home toilet seats get very light use compared to public toilet seats and therefore are (by default) much less likely to fail at any given point in time.

jesus something's wrong with me. I totally interpreted as coconuts designed to look like crabs and an alligator gay fish. I totally knew about the U toilet seats instead of the O toilet already. Ate at an acquaintances house before for a dinner, went to the bathroom and saw that they had a U toilet seat. Sat back down and said "hey why do you have a business toilet?" No one in the room knew about the U toilets and were
